It's been approx 5-6 weeks since Str8six delivered my F1 SAG. Due to weather conditions work and a little time away, I decided that I would finally take the beast for it's first test drive under my ownership.

Whilst owning a brutal T350c and a Griff 500 I am not a virgin to Tiv's.

After 5-6 weeks on trickle charge and under her tailored cover and her 2 heaters keeping her at room temp, she fired up in seconds.

Roads were a little damp, so was carefull. I ended up going to 5 different petrol station's in the end as I could not get the Nozzle inside the fuel tank. Long story, I finally sorted it at the last station. Funny how It was the best drive ever to pull into 5 different feuling stations, and just admire everyone's reactions to an F1 SAGARIS.

The BIG GRIN is BACK!

Simply sensational.woohoo

Comparison's on the driving side is not yet possible as I had the T350c for 5 years and the Sag was a simple and gentle drive this evening due to no grip on roads. I have driven other Sag's and in general thay feel a lot more planted and a little more torque.

What I can comment on. is that get yourself a Sag in a good colour and then you are in an exclusive club like no other.

Non stop feel good factor.

Will make comarisons in the near future!

Is it the green one? if so, it's absolutely stunning if you don't mind me saying. If you ever fancy having some photos taken give me a shout smile

I would be keen to hear about T350 v Sag. I am contemplating "upgrading" from my T350 and viewing a Fez 360 today. The Sag is the only other TVR I would change to though.

Hi Gordon

Are you still looking for a Sag matey. I went out for the first time today for a drive and linked up with the Essex lot, good day. On the way home roads were a little dryer so I opened the girl up a little. SUPERB. Feels so much more powerfull and torque than my T350c.

I was not going mad as roads were not 100%.
As far as the colour is concerned Mr Clive has got it spot on!

Good luck with your search Gord.

Hey Chris,

Good to meet you at the Essex TVRCC meet, the F1 Sag is absolutely stunning.

I have a couple of pictures of your Sag that I can post here if you like?

why are we all calling it F1 Sag? Is it more than the colour that is different? does it have a relationship with the old Jag racing team? trying not to be stupid here.

Just noticed Tovie has asked the same question as me.

As per the question above The track was wider than the T350 and the Tuscan.
